  • Milan to Zurich by Bernina Express train, by regional train from Milan to Tirano (dep. 10:20, arr. 12:50), Bernina Express from Tirano to Chur (dep. 14:04, arr. 18:27) and InterCity to Zurich (dep. 18:39, arr. 19:53). To buy Bernina Express from just €29.90, see www.seat61.com/trains-and-rou....
    This is perhaps THE most scenic train ride in the Swiss Alps, in fact it's one of the most scenic train rides in the world. It's a completely different experience in the snowy depths of winter as in the height of summer, so you may have to do it twice! The Bernina Express is one of my favourite train journeys, anywhere.

    I used your website to find out how to do this journey in 2018. I was so lucky as the entire trip was in deep snow, making the views from the train absolutely stunning. Thank you for your inspiration!

    Mark Smith is the man. I've followed his instructions for our trip from Munich to Salzburg, Salzburg to Prague, and Prague to Vienna. I'd have never found €10 anytime tickets for Munich to Salzburg without his tricks. Same for the other destinations as well.
    Our friends (another couple) were so happy to travel by train at such cheap ticket prices, all kudos to Mark and his step-by-step instructions.

      Yes, he's the best one on trains, and his videos are exemplary. No ego, no endless videos of his face. Just great information and good shots. Thank you, Mark!

    Great video, thanks for putting it together. I just did the Milan to Tirano and then later the Tirano to St Moritz train ride and loved it. It was snowy most of the way up and just beautiful. Your more summery video looks brilliant and I'd love to do the same trip in that season also sometime. The corkscrew bridge is really cool! Cheers

    I am going to Milan on a business trip. My travel agent accidentally booked my return ticket from Zurich instead of Milan. So, now I have to go to Zurich from Milan. I was hoping that if the route was scenic, I would rather take a train than change my schedule. It looks gorgeous.

    Very well photographed video, Mark. I have done this trip 3 or 4 times and never tire of it. Many trains claim title to the best railway journey in the world. This one has to truly be near the top of any list right along with the Interlaken - Eiger route. A bonus with the Bernina Eexpress is that it's included as part of any eurail pass covering Switzerland. And the train's splendid eye-popping red colour has to be a definite plus for any photographer - still or video. Hugh - Vancouver, Canada,

    No, although the RhB is involved in the running of both of them and they overlap, both operating over the Chur-St Moritz section. Glacier Express is east-west Zermatt to St Moritz, Bernina is north-south Chur to Tirano.

    Although I've read in many places that the Glacier Express is better, I rode it from Zermatt to Chur and then rode the Bernina as part of a trip from Chur to Venice the next day (so...slow, medium past Lake Como, then fast to Venice from the gorgeous Milano Centrale). For scenery, I think the Bernina Express wins -- hands down.
    Thanks for the memories!
